Argentina - Fitz Roy Trek

Calafate - El Chalten - Huemul Glacier

Description:

Los Glaciares National Park, at the Southern edge of Patagonia is much more than the "rivers of ice" that give name to the territory. In the park's northern area, the overwhelming masses of the Fitz Roy cluster rise between the continental ice-field and the vast Patagonian steppes. Paths amidst the valleys and trails into woodlands allow you to enjoy this unique mountain scenery at close range and the best time to enjoy this trek is from October to March.
